39,019 hikers took part in the 105th edition of the Vierdaagse Marches in Nijmegen. This means that almost 8,000 walkers did not start or dropped out on the way, as all 47,000 start tickets were sold. On Friday, the last day of the Four-Day Marches, more hikers than usual arrived late at the finish line.
March leader Henny Sackers of Stichting De 4Daagse fired the starting shot on Tuesday at 4:00 a.m. for the 105th edition of the Vierdaagse Marches in Nijmegen. The hikers who will cover 50 kilometers for four days in a row started on the shot. Those doing 40 kilometers started an hour later, and the 30-kilometer walkers will leave between 7:00 and 8:00 a.m. On Tuesday, the Dag van Elst is on the program - a trip through the Betuwe that even visits Arnhem.
